Chapter 19: Problem 49

A \(20.0 \mathrm{cm} \times 30.0 \mathrm{cm}\) rectangular loop of wire carries \(1.0 \mathrm{A}\) of current clockwise around the loop. (a) Find the magnetic force on each side of the loop if the magnetic ficld is 2.5 T out of the page. (b) What is the net magnetic force on the loop?

Short Answer

Expert verified
Answer: The magnetic force on each side parallel to the magnetic field is 0 N, the magnetic force on each side perpendicular to the magnetic field is 0.75 N, and the net magnetic force on the loop is 1.5 N.

Step by step solution

01

Setting up the problem

Determine the lengths of the sides of the rectangular loop. Using the given dimensions, we know that the loop has two sides with lengths of 20.0 cm and two sides with lengths of 30.0 cm.
02

Calculate the magnetic force on the sides parallel to the magnetic field

Using the formula \(F = I\mathcal{L} \times B\), we calculate the magnetic force on the two sides with lengths of 20.0 cm: \(F_{1} = I\mathcal{L}_{1} \times B = (1.0\,\mathrm{A})(0.20\,\mathrm{m})(2.5\,\mathrm{T}) = 0.5\,\mathrm{N}\). For these sides, since the current is parallel to the magnetic field, there is no magnetic force acting on them, so \(F_{1} = 0\).
03

Calculate the magnetic force on the sides perpendicular to the magnetic field

Now, we calculate the magnetic force on the two sides with lengths of 30.0 cm: \(F_{2} = I\mathcal{L}_{2} \times B = (1.0\,\mathrm{A})(0.30\,\mathrm{m})(2.5\,\mathrm{T}) = 0.75\,\mathrm{N}\). For these sides, the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field, so the magnetic force is maximized.
04

Calculate the net magnetic force

We now have the magnetic forces for each of the sides: \(F_{1} = 0\) and \(F_{2} = 0.75\,\mathrm{N}\). Since the forces on the two sides parallel to the magnetic field are zero, the net magnetic force is the sum of the forces on the other two sides: \(F_{\mathrm{net}} = 2F_{2} = 2(0.75\,\mathrm{N}) = 1.5\,\mathrm{N}\). So, the magnetic force on each side parallel to the magnetic field is 0 N, the magnetic force on each side perpendicular to the magnetic field is 0.75 N, and the net magnetic force on the loop is 1.5 N.

In an electric motor, a circular coil with 100 turns of radius $2.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ can rotate between the poles of a magnet. When the current through the coil is \(75 \mathrm{~mA},\) the maximum torque that the motor can deliver is \(0.0020 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m} .\) (a) What is the strength of the magnetic field? (b) Is the torque on the coil clockwise or counterclockwise as viewed from the front at the instant shown in the figure?
An electron moves with speed \(2.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\) in a \(1.2-\mathrm{T}\) uniform magnctic ficld. At one instant, the electron is moving due west and experiences an upward magnetic force of $3.2 \times 10^{-14} \mathrm{N} .$ What is the direction of the magnetic field? Be specific: give the angle(s) with respect to $\mathrm{N}, \mathrm{S}, \mathrm{E}, \mathrm{W},$ up, down. (If there is more than one possible answer, find all the possibilities.)
The conversion between atomic mass units and kilograms is $$1 \mathrm{u}=1.66 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{kg}$$ Natural carbon consists of two different isotopes (excluding $^{14} \mathrm{C},$ which is present in only trace amounts). The isotopes have different masses, which is due to different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus; however, the number of protons is the same, and subsequently the chemical properties are the same. The most abundant isotope has an atomic mass of \(12.00 \mathrm{u} .\) When natural carbon is placed in a mass spectrometer, two lines are formed on the photographic plate. The lines show that the more abundant isotope moved in a circle of radius \(15.0 \mathrm{cm},\) while the rarer isotope moved in a circle of radius \(15.6 \mathrm{cm} .\) What is the atomic mass of the rarer isotope? (The ions have the same charge and are accelerated through the same potential difference before entering the magnetic field.)
An electron moves with speed \(2.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\) in a uniform magnetic field of \(1.4 \mathrm{T},\) pointing south. At one instant, the electron experiences an upward magnetic force of $1.6 \times 10^{-14} \mathrm{N} .$ In what direction is the electron moving at that instant? Be specific: give the angle(s) with respect to $\mathrm{N}, \mathrm{S}, \mathrm{E}, \mathrm{W},$ up, down. (If there is more than one possible answer, find all the possibilitics.)
Two long straight wires carry the same amount of current in the directions indicated. The wires cross each other in the plane of the paper. Rank points \(A, B\) \(C,\) and \(D\) in order of decreasing field strength.
